Fresh Grounded Faith

When you come to a sudden bump in the road....
Never allow your life circumstances to define you. Instead, let them refine you. Hard things are like heavenly sandpaper on your life. God uses them to shape and mold you into a work of art. When you feel the pressure of trials, remember that God won't allow them to crush you; He intends for them to make you beautiful.

When you feel afraid.....
Always exercise courage even when you don't feel confident. Courage is a choice; confidence is a feeling. Remember that courage and confidence are not the same thing. Ask God  to help you overcome earthly fear by developing  reverence  for him.  The only fear that brings you wisdom is the fear of God. Fear Him, reverence Him, and nothing else will shake you.

These are some paragraphs from a book Im reading called fresh grounded faith. I loved them, so I thought I would share.
